Pastor Victor Kanyari has promised to take full responsibility for raising his two children following the death of gospel singer Betty Bayo.
Who passed away yesterday after battling an advanced stage of leukemia at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH).
While speaking, Kanyari said he would continue to uphold the values of love and resilience that the late Bayo had instilled in their children.
"I can’t believe you’re gone, the mother of my children, but I promise to take care of our kids better than ever before,” Kanyari expressed.
The well-known gospel artist, renowned for her uplifting hit song "Eleventh Hour," leaves a significant gap.
In the gospel music scene and among her devoted fans who cherished her soothing voice and inspiring lyrics.
Despite their separation years ago, Bayo and Kanyari fostered a close friendship that enabled them to co-parent their children harmoniously.
They were frequently seen together at their children's events and had previously spoken about how their parenting partnership took precedence over any past conflicts.
In a prior interview, Bayo commended Kanyari for being a dedicated father who actively engaged with their children and closely monitored their academic and personal development.
This sentiment is now fondly recalled by fans as a reflection of the mutual respect they had for one another in their co-parenting journey.
Betty Bayo had been hospitalized at Kenyatta National Hospital after her health began to decline a few weeks ago.
A family source indicated that, although she continued her treatment, her body could no longer cope with the aggressive illness, which had progressed to a critical stage.
